So I'm starting a blog. I have no idea what I'm going to do with it. It's an adventure, we'll see... but now seems like a really great time to be doing this.
I leave to start my summer graduate program at Central Washington University in a week. I'll be earning a MA in Theatre Production. And I have no idea what I'm doing. I haven't written a paper since college, and honestly, I'm not too sure what's expected of me when I get out there. I usually have an issue with uncertainty, but this time (even though I'm kind of scared out of my wits!) I'm really excited to go to a new place, meet new people and be totally immersed in all kinds of theatre classes for 5 weeks. And when I say totally immersed, I'm talking 6 or 7 days a week, 8:30-5:30 in-class awesomeness.
I'm wrapping up my 8th year in the same school I've been teaching at since I graduated from college. I've just this year come to the conclusion that I enjoy what I'm doing. With all the stresses, frustrations, irritations, and craziness that sometimes distract me from what I do, when it comes down to it, I love teaching theatre. I wasn't so sure of that in years past, but now, I think this is what I want to do. Something this year just "clicked," and I've finally settled into what I think is a really good thing. We'll see if grading exams next week has any effect on that... ;)
Here's to the start of a new adventure!
